UP: Walt may as well have staged his collapse on the bathroom floor, because it conveniently brings Skyler to his side. Kneeling on the cool tiles, she suggests he stay quiet and not surrender to Hank. Although this does not guarantee loyalty, she proves an unlikely champion of his at this hour. She gives Hank nothing, knowing this is not a matter she can pretend to be above.

DOWN: Jesse could sell Walt out. Walt's actions are no doubt the catalyst for this fragile, contrite side of Jesse, whose carelessness with cash lands him in an interrogation room. Compared to back when Hank beat Jesse to a pulp, trust between the erstwhile meth-cooking duo is waning with every minute.

DOWN: Hank makes strides with the case, merely by getting Skyler and Jesse each in a room so soon. He stirs up sisterly drama, which pretty much ensures another facet of normalcy — those group family dinners — is dead. Walt Jr., conspicuously absent, should arrange alternative breakfast plans.
